Joseph Crosby Lincoln (February 13, 1870 – March 10, 1944) was an American author of novels, poems, and short stories, many set in a fictionalized Cape Cod. Lincoln's work frequently appeared in popular magazines such as the Saturday Evening Post and The Delineator. Lincoln was aware of contemporary naturalist writers, such as Frank Norris and Theodore Dreiser, who used American literature to plumb the depths of human nature, but he rejected this literary exercise. Lincoln claimed that he was satisfied "spinning yarns" that made readers feel good about themselves and their neighbors. Two of his stories have been adapted to film.

Much of the book is about a social climbing wife of a retired sea captain who inherits some money. The daughter for whom the book is named, is a minimal character in the book until later in the story. The daughter finally makes an entrance in the nick of time before the social climbing wife completely destroys both their marital happiness and their bank account. The daughter gets busy and eventually does manage to help her family get their priorities straight, complete with a happy ending. Unfortunately, the narration of the social climbing gets very tiresome. It is only in the latter part of the book that it becomes somewhat humorous.I had really enjoyed "Galusha the Magnificent" by the same author, so I eagerly downloaded other books by him. I will read one or two of the others with hopes they are more like "Galusha" but this one was somewhat disappointing.

Great book!
If you haven't yet read Joseph C. Lincoln, you are in for a treat. The stories are dated, true, but the characters are delightful and you can almost feel the sand of Cape Cod under your feet.
